PREFACE 

In  preparing  this  revision  of  the  "  New  Era  Word  Book," 
the  author  has  aimed  to  meet  the  requirements  of  teachers 
who  insist  that  a  speller  should  teach  a  child  pronunciation 
as  well  as  spelling.  To  this  end  the  words  in  the  "  Self- 
Pronouncing  Speller "  have  been  diacritically  marked  and 
syllabicated,  so  that  it  will  not  be  found  necessary  to  con- 
sult the  dictionary  for  the  pronunciation  of  any  word  con- 
tained in  it.  The  latest  edition  of  Webster's  Dictionary  has 
been  followed.  The  markings  are  also  Webster's,  simplified 
so  as  to  be  readily  understood  by  the  child.  The  device  of 
re-spelling  phonetically  has  not  been  used  except  in  a  few 
cases,  the  desire  being  to  impress  the  pupil,  as  nearly  as 
may  be,  with  the  form  of  the  word  as  he  will  meet  it  in 
ordinary  print. 

The  book  is  divided  into  eight  sections,  each  section 
adapted  to  the  corresponding  grade.  It  contains  some 
eighty-seven  hundred  words,  and,  inasmuch  as  this  number 
is  not  padded  by  the  useless  repetition  of  words  combined 
with  the  various  prefixes  and  suffixes,  the  speller  will  be 
found  ample  for  all  grammar  school  needs. 

The  simpler  words  in  the  first  two  sections  will  be  found 
especially  helpful  in  fixing  an  early  understanding  of  the 
diacritical  marks.  It  is  urged,  therefore,  that  these  two  sec- 
tions be  used  for  sight  drill  in  ready  pronunciation  rather 
than  for  formal  work   in  spelling.      In   each   section    the 


PREFACE 


words  are  presented  alphabetically.  It  seemed  that  any 
other  arrangement,  however  fanciful,  would  detract  from 
the  value  of  the  book  as  a  speller.  This  device  also  ena- 
bles the  child  readily  to  find  any  word,  and  thus  drills  him 
in  the  use  of  a  dictionary. 

The  plan  in  preparing  the  "Self-Pronouncing  Speller" 
has  been  to  present  a  list  of  words  which  are  or  should  be 
in  the  child's  vocabulary,  but  on  the  spelling  and  pronuncia- 
tion of  which  he  should  have  special  drill.  It  is  not  intended 
as  a  treatise  on  comparative  philology,  nor  an  introduction 
to  the  study  of  Latin  and  Greek,  nor  yet  a  grammar.  It 
omits  some  material  found  in  other  books,  much  of  which 
is  useless  and  distracting  with  its  endless  and  hopeless  de- 
tail. An  exception  is  the  insertion  of  the  more  common 
rules  of  spelling,  a  rule  usually  following  an  exercise  which 
has  disclosed  a  practical  illustration  of  it.  In  this  respect 
alone  does  the  speller  encroach  upon  the  language  book.  A 
very  full  list  of  homophones  has  been  appended,  as  has  also 
a  useful  table  of  prefixes  and  suffixes.  The  lists  of  abbre- 
viations found  in  the  original  edition  have  been  retained. 
All  this  supplementary  material  may  be  used  at  the  dis- 
cretion of  the  teacher. 

The  wise  teacher  will  give  as  important  a  place  to 
spelling  as  to  any  other  study  in  the  curriculum ;  the  child 
should  be  kept  at  spelling  until  he  is  able  to  spell,  —  both 
orally  and  in  writing.  For  the  oral  work  a  revival  of  the 
spelling  bee  cannot  be  too  strongly  urged.  For  the  written 
work  a  substantial  blank  book  is  especially  recommended,  as 
no  device  will  so  spur  on  the  child  to  painstaking  care  as  a 
permanent  record  of  his  daily  efforts.

SIMPLE  RULES  OF  SPELLING 

I.     Words  ending  in  e  usually  drop  the  e  before  a  suffh 
beginning  with  a  vowel:  as  move,  moved;  moving,  movable. 

II.  Words  ending  in  ce  or  ge  usually  retain  the  e  before  th< 
suffixes  able  and  ous  :  as  peace,  peaceable  ;  change,  changeable  ;  out- 
rage, outrageous. 

III.  Final  e  is  sometimes  retained  to  prevent  a  change  of  pro- 
nunciation, or  to  preserve  the  identity  of  a  word :  as  hoe,  hoeing , 
shoe,  shoeing;  dye,  dyeing ;  singe,  singeing. 

IV.  In  monosyllables  and  words  accented  on  the  last  syllable, 
a  final  consonant  after  a  single  vowel  is  doubled  before  a  suffix 
beginning  with  a  vowel:  as  plan,  planned ;  forgot,  forgotten ;  fat, 
fattest. 

V.  Words  accented  on  the  first  syllable,  ending  with  a  single 
consonant  preceded  by  a  single  vowel,  do  not  double  the  final 
consonant  before  a  suffix :  as  rival,  rivaled ;  vigor,  vigorous ;  bene- 
fit, benefited. 

VI.  Final  y,  after  a  consonant,  usually  becomes  i  before  a 
suffix  not  beginning  with  i :  as  glory,  glorious  ;  busy,  busier  ;  dainty, 
daintily. 

VII.  Final  y,  preceded  by  a  vowel,  is  usually  retained  before 
a  suffix  :  as  decay,  decaying ;  delay,  delaying ;  employ,  employed ; 
annoy,  annoyance.

HOMOPHONES 


The  following  list  of  homophones  consists  of  words  whose  use  the  pupil  is  quite 
likely  to  find  confusing.  They  have  not  been  diacritically  marked,  because  most  of 
them  have  already  occurred  in  the  body  of  the  book  and  also  because  their  group- 
ing affords  a  key  to  their  pronunciation.  The  definitions  are  necessarily  short,  but 
it  is  believed  they  will  be  found  perfectly  clear.  It  is  suggested  that  lessons  be 
regularly  assigned  here,  a  column  at  a  time,  and  that  pupils  be  required  to  use 
the  homophones  in  sentences  of  their  own  construction.  This  work,  of  course,  is 
adapted  only  to  the  higher  grades.
